You can tell how well you know someone by how well you understand the context of context-less comments shouted into the void

“Blast this Christmas music! It’s joyful and triumphant.”

Every once in a while I remember that Universe 25 suggests that copulation is not utopic

The whole "would you trust your SO with your phone?" trope is so annoying. If someone wants to be sneaky about something, they'll figure out how to hide it.

Either one doesn't keep their deepest darkest secrets on their phone or they don't have secrets.

Anyone saying "no" is either putting on an act or is an idiot.

I can’t help but say this feels out of character for a Wikipedia article.

@mike I haven’t run into that for a while, but the early days of Siri got me in the habit of saying “51 minutes” when precision didn’t matter

Action shots.

A recurring experience:

1. Person complains to me about an IT-related gripe they have
2. I suggest a remedy
3. They brush me off like fixing the problem is less important than complaining about it

I don't know what to make of this.

You know, if you don't drink such giant cups of coffee, it'll stay warm while you're drinking it

The one thing Purolator has over Amazon's in-house shipping is the former will ring the doorbell when dropping a package off.

In 2035 it will have been the same amount of time from the first manned moon landing to the present as it has been from the Kitty Hawk until the first (supposed 😉) manned moon landing.

It took 66 years from flying to landing on the moon… what will we have 66 years after landing on the moon?

@GummyNerds Just for that, I shall have to call it the Gummy Ulcer

@klaatu They call it the earthling disease so it's only fair!

The single best kind of repeating todo item is a "repeat x days/time after completion"

Syphilis was called…

The French disease by the English, Germans, and Italians

The Neapolitan disease by the French

The Hindu disease by the Muslims

The Muslim disease by the Hindus

The Christian disease by the Turks

The Polish disease by the Russians

The Spanish disease by the Dutch

The Chinese ulcer by the Japanese

What a lovely exercise in finger-pointing.

"I've got a hole in my brain / where what I meant to say lives" rings too true https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmpelduRY3I

@louis Weird, I've never heard that specifically before, but I have been told many-a-time that drivers of red cars get more speeding tickets… not quite the same thing but probably an idea that is built on the same idea

It's wild that the APA styleguide says to change the case of the title of a work instead of leaving it how the author intended.
